Four destroyers of the Talisman Class were completed for the Turkish Navy but taken up for Royal Navy service in the war.
They were large, with five 4-in Q.F. guns, making them more like a Flotilla Leader when in Royal Navy service.

Depth charges were added to most of the "M" class destroyers, necessitating that some land their aft gun to accommodate the outfit.[1] This may apply here.
Fire Control
By the end of 1915, at least, these ships had or were to be provided a range and order data system similar recent Barr and Stroud patterns.[3]
The scheme placed the combined transmitter on the forebridge, and a combined receiver near the sightsetter position of each gun. Ranges from 0 to 9900 yards in increments of 100 yards, and orders were "Independent", "Control" and "Fire" with illuminated indicators and a red indicator on the receivers to signal loss of power from the battery pack located below decks.
